AI Overview
A 3.0 mm No-Profile (or zero-profile) Headless Compression Screw is a specialized orthopedic implant designed for fixing small bone fractures, osteotomies, and arthrodeses (joint fusions), particularly in the foot, ankle, hand, and wrist. These screws are engineered to be fully buried within the bone, preventing soft tissue irritation and hardware prominence.
Key Features and Benefits
- Headless/Zero-Profile Design: Because they lack a traditional head and are designed to be countersunk, these screws sit flush against or below the bone surface.
- Compression: They typically feature a variable thread pitch—different thread pitches at the leading and trailing ends—which generates compression across the fracture site as the screw is driven in.
- Cannulated: Most systems, such as the Orion Screw System or Arthrex Compression FT, are cannulated, allowing them to be inserted over a guide wire for precise placement.
- Material: Frequently constructed from titanium alloy for strength and biocompatibility.
- Improved Driver Engagement: Many use Torx or hexalobe connections to reduce the risk of head stripping during insertion.
